Item 1.01
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On June 30, 2017, MoSys, Inc. (the Company) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the Purchase Agreement) with certain purchasers identified on the signature pages thereto (the Purchasers), pursuant to which the Company will offer and sell to the Purchasers, in a registered direct offering, an aggregate of 1,325,000 shares (the Shares) of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the Common Stock) at a negotiated purchase price of $1.70 per share, for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $2,252,500, before deducting fees to the placement agent and other estimated offering expenses payable by the Company. The Shares are being offered by the Company pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-19799), which was
declared effective by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on September 9, 2014 (the Registration Statement).
In a concurrent private placement, the Company is also selling to each of the Purchasers a warrant to purchase one half of a share of the Common Stock for each share purchased for cash in the offering, pursuant to a Common Stock Purchase Warrant, by and between the Company and each Purchaser (each, a Warrant, and collectively, the Warrants) representing in the aggregate rights to purchase 662,500 shares of Common Stock at the exercise price. The Warrants will be exercisable beginning on the six-month anniversary of the date of issuance (the Initial Exercise Date) at an exercise price of $2.35 per share and will expire on the five-year anniversary of the Initial Exercise Date.
The exercise price and number of Warrant Shares will be subject to adjustment in the event of any stock dividend or split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization or similar transaction, as described in the Warrants. The Warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis if at any time after the six month anniversary there is not an effective registration statement for the resale of the Warrant Shares in place, or there is not a current resale prospectus then available.
For a period of 12 months after the closing date of the sale of the Shares and the Warrants, the Purchasers will have a right to participate in subsequent financings by the Company up to an amount equal to 33% of the total amount of such financing by giving notice of the exercise of such right on the day after which the Purchaser receives notice of the proposed financing.
For a period of 45 days after the closing date of the sale of the Shares and the Warrants, the provisions of the Purchase Agreement generally prohibit the Company from issuing or agreeing to issue shares of Common Stock or common stock equivalents other than under equity compensation plans, outstanding rights to acquire common stock or common stock equivalent, or in connection with certain acquisitions or strategic transactions.
The Warrants and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants (the Warrant Shares) are not being registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), and are instead being offered pursuant to the exemption provided in Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act, or in the event of an issuance of Warrant Shares on a cashless basis, pursuant to the exemption provided in Section 3(a)(9) under the Securities Act.
